Overview of Diversicare of Batesville

Diversicare of Batesville is a 130-bed skilled nursing community owned by Jackie Lairy on Woodland Road in Batesville, Mississippi. It takes Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay, offering numerous pathways for families to arrange coverage. With an 82 percent occupancy rate and an average stay length of 79 days, the community serves a mix of short-term rehabilitation residents and those requiring longer-term nursing care.

The facility’s care concentrates on rehabilitation and complex medical needs. Short-stay rehabilitation draws patients recovering from surgery or hospital stays who benefit from intensive therapy and medical support before going home. Total nursing care averages 4 hours and 1 minute per resident day, with registered nurses providing 35 minutes of daily care, nurse aides contributing 2 hours and 8 minutes, and LPN/LVN staff adding 57 minutes. That staffing level reflects a dedication to hands-on clinical support all day. The surrounding neighborhood scores 56 on walkability, so visiting family members can do some local errands on foot, while most trips require a fast drive. The facility is committed to maintaining an inviting environment bolstered by highly trained caregivers. Diversicare of Batesville is established around the idea that quality care depends on the people who deliver it each day, and staffing is configured to keep such support consistent and present.

Diversicare of Batesville’s location is moderately walkable, and this can fit families wanting convenient access without being amid a busy downtown district.
